Add Catalan and Basque language support with Spanish as the fallback. Support all canonical time zones for precise global data. Update label translations for 12 languages to improve accuracy. Adopt ICU locale formats to standardize date, time, and currency formatting.
- Support More Time Zones
Maintain global data accuracy with support for all Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) canonical time zones. Get more precise regional mappings and standardized naming conventions across the platform, helping your users stay synchronized regardless of their location. The new time zone information is available automatically in your time zone settings. Previous time zone information remains available through Apex and APIs for backward compatibility. - Expand End-User Language Translations to Catalan and Basque (Beta)
Improve the experience of Catalan and Basque speakers with user interface language support for select clouds. Catalan and Basque UI text, now available as beta-supported languages, falls back to Spanish when translations aren’t available. - Review Updated Label Translations
To improve accuracy and your users’ experience, we updated the translations for some standard object, tab, and field names for these languages: Chinese (Simplified), Dutch, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish, and Spanish (Mexico). - Enable ICU Locale Formats (Release Update)
With this update, the International Components for Unicode (ICU) locale formats replace Oracle’s Java Development Kit (JDK) locale formats in Salesforce. Locales control the format for dates, times, currencies, addresses, names, numeric values, and the start day of the week. ICU sets the international standard for these formats. The ICU locale formats provide a consistent experience across the platform and improve integration with ICU-compliant applications across the globe. This update was first made available in Winter ’20. Orgs that haven’t already switched to ICU locale formats are encouraged to manually update.
